Objectives and scope of the Project

Objective:

The tour guide will allow anyone to obtain information about

a particular location by scanning it through their phones.

Scope:

Once a user comes across an unknown destination or a

destination they wish to gather more information about, they
can scan the particular destination for its identification as well
as updated information. The application will also provide
information regarding nearby landmarks the user can visit.
Eg: If the user comes across ‘Gateway of India’ and he/she
scans it using Travel Trap, insider information will be voiced
about the said landmark. Places like The Taj Mahal Palace
hotel will be shown on the ‘nearby Landmarks’.
Travel Trap will be your ideal flexible, cost and time effective
personalized tour guide.
